1 Kings 18:36-38

Context
18:36 When it was time for the evening offering, 1  Elijah the prophet approached the altar 2  and prayed: “O Lord God of Abraham, Isaac, and Israel, prove 3  today that you are God in Israel and that I am your servant and have done all these things at your command. 18:37 Answer me, O Lord, answer me, so these people will know that you, O Lord, are the true God 4  and that you are winning back their allegiance.” 5  18:38 Then fire from the Lord fell from the sky. 6  It consumed the offering, the wood, the stones, and the dirt, and licked up the water in the trench.
